Is it possible to set the max HR separately for each sport? Thanks!
Yes you can. This is done in /settings for each sport:
The threshold heart rate will be sport specific because you will use different muscles in the different sports.
However, shouldn’t the max heart rate really be the “Max heart rate”, thus independent of the sport? In the literature it is described as something that is not trainable and will decrease around 1 bpm every year? If it is sport specific it must be because you are using different muscles in the different sports, but then it will also be trainable.
See e.g.:
Thanks, David. I put my Max HR in the running panel and it showed up automatically, I think, in the biking panel, which made me think there is only one variable for Max HR across the sports. Good to know I can have sport-specific ones. I think my HR zones for training should be sport-specific. Thanks!
